The name, Ohana is derived from the Hawaiian culture and means ‘family in an extended sense. It emphasizes that families are bound together and members must cooperate and remember one another’. The adoption of the name Ohana within the business signifies and binds together the belief of the organisation as to its values and the service offering. The name was derived from our family’s all time favourite Disney film, Lilo & Stitch where ‘Ohana means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten.’

Welcome to Ohana. At Ohana we aim to grow a successful, motivated and professionally run early childhood learning centre based on shared values of community, respect, fun and inclusive learning.

We would love to welcome your family to Ohana Early Learning. We recognise that the decision to place your child in someone else’s care is an important one, and as such we honour the role we have in your child’s learning and development.

Like our name, our aim is to work with you as an extended family in order to provide your family and your child with the security, warmth and love that is essential for their development and growth. Our name is derived from the Hawaiian culture meaning family and also comes from my family's all time favourite Disney film, 'Lilo & Stitch' - Ohana means family, nobody gets left behind.

Our professional and dedicated carers will provide a program that enables children to learn through exploration and stimulation. We aspire to create an environment that provides enjoyable and creative learning. This is achieved through activities designed to support your child in all areas of growth.

Our dedicated education directors and staff look forward to sharing this special time with you and your child.
